The architectural answer

Sovereignty is a choice you get to make.

One architectural decision shapes everything else. Tessell runs the same platform across a choice of deployment options, so you decide how much we manage and how much stays entirely within your perimeter, down to your own cloud account.

Full Data Sovereignty

The data plane runs inside your own AWS account, under your KMS keys and your network policies. Tessell's control plane runs operations from outside your perimeter. Your data never leaves your account.

  • Data plane in your own AWS account
  • (BYOA) Your encryption keys (BYOK, your KMS) and your network (BYON, private subnets)
  • Private-only access, no public internet exposure

Best for regulated enterprises and governments with strict data sovereignty requirements.

Procurement, solved

Buy Tessell the way you already buy AWS

Most database software lands as net-new spend: a fresh procurement cycle, a new security review, a budget line to defend. Tessell is on AWS Marketplace, transacting on paper, and billing you already have. Because it runs through Marketplace, Tessell draws down your existing AWS commitment instead of adding to it. Spend you already agreed to now covers your whole database estate, rather than competing with next year's budget.

FeatureDetail
Every engine

Every engine your estate runs, on one platform

Oracle, SQL Server, PostgreSQL, and MySQL, each managed natively on AWS through one control plane and one operating model.

Oracle
OracleManage your Oracle databases on AWS with built-in HA and DR, automated patching, and license visibility. Optimize your Oracle investment as you modernize.
SQL Server
SQL ServerStandard Edition HA, included. Manage SQL Server on AWS with automated backups, PITR, and estate-wide patching built in.
PostgreSQL
PostgreSQLRun PostgreSQL on AWS with the configuration control and extension flexibility your teams expect, plus built-in HA and PITR.
MySQL
MySQLRun MySQL on AWS with built-in HA, automated backups, and point-in-time recovery, consolidated onto an efficient NVMe-backed compute.
High Performance

Performance your most demanding databases can count on.

Tessell runs on high-density NVMe storage tuned for databases, so your heaviest workloads get the throughput they need on efficient, right-sized compute.

NVMe-Backed Performance
Up to 10x performance and up to 2 million IOPS on specific NVMe-backed configurations.
More IOPS per vCPU
High NVMe density delivers more IOPS on fewer vCPUs, so you hit performance targets on smaller, right-sized compute.
Predictable at scale
Provisioned NVMe storage keeps throughput steady, with no IOPS-based metering surprises.
Right-sized to your workload
Compute matched to actual load, from constrained-core VMs to dedicated hosts.
Consolidate without contention
Run many databases per host while holding performance, for fewer hosts to manage.
The Tessell support difference

An engineering team that knows your environment.

From your first proof of concept through production, a dedicated Tessell engineering team stands behind your databases, and knows how yours are built.
Dedicated from day one

Dedicated from day one

The same engineers who support your POC support your production environment. No handoffs, no re-explaining your architecture.
One point of contact

One point of contact

When an issue spans your database or cloud vendor, Tessell coordinates the resolution directly on your behalf. One point of contact, not three.
Around the clock for mission-critical

Around the clock for mission-critical

Tessell monitors your databases 24x7x365 and alerts on anomalies before they become incidents. Mission-Critical plans carry a 15-minute Sev-1 response.
How migration works

How Tessell migrates your databases to AWS

A phased, reversible path onto AWS, with a tested way back at every stage and no application rewrites.

Migration Approach
1. Assessment
Analyze your database estate, workloads, and dependencies to size the right target architecture on AWS.
2. Migration Planning
Map each database to a phased plan with a tested rollback at every stage, so there is no point of no return.
3. Migration Execution
Move schema and data with continuous replication, keeping source and target in sync until you are ready.
4. Cutover
Switch over on your schedule, with a validated way back if anything looks wrong.
5. Post-Migration Operations
Day-two operations, HA, DR, and backups run on the platform from the moment you go live.
